MSVP: Mean Saturation Vapour Pressure (e_s)

In FAO56: Evapotranspiration Based on FAO Penman-Monteith Equation

Mean Saturation Vapour Pressure (e_s)

Description

MSVP returns the value of mean saturation vapour pressure.

Usage

MSVP(T_max, T_min)

Arguments

T_max	Optional. A numeric scalar that denotes the daily maximum temperature [C].
T_min	Optional. A numeric scalar that denotes the daily minimum temperature [C].

Details

This is a function to calculate the mean saturation vapour pressure [kPa].

Value

The function returns the value of the mean saturation vapour pressure [kPa] as a numeric scalar.
